Lost in Translation... or Pittsburgh Anthro/airport con 2013
12 years ago
Well this is highly unexpected and I felt everything should calm down before I do up a post here on my journal. well that and my friend needed to use my lappy so he can do updated and get his own ticket up and going.
yesterday I sat at the Pittsburgh international airport waiting for my plane when a friend
catmonkshiro was removed from his plane the one before and was transferred to mine. (after much hair pulling I won't lie). and we hung out waiting for a plane that was suppose to come 3 hours later.
at 6:15 we got told the plane was delayed to 7:45, a bit later we are wondering what's going on and I notice the timer has changed to 8:15... then we get the announcement that its coming in at 8:50. while wondering whats going on and waiting a bit more the lady at the front gave us the 'bad news'
My airplane from Pittsburgh International to Toronto Peterson International was just simply... cancelled. yup you heard me cancelled. it would seem that Toronto had a sudden and unexpected cause of flash floods that got as high as 5 feet in some of the road ways and had killed so much power that the airport itself was dark. can't really land in a storm when their is no assistance lighting strips I guess... more so when they are 4 feet under.
keeping close to Shiro and figuring out things we met up with a couple of other furs found a room at the hyatt and spent the night. funny enough middle of the night an unexpected rain. it was just wow but I don't think enough to really mess to much with anything around here.
so that's my story, I have just woke up i feel like i need a drink and i have to sit and hold on and hope that their is a plane for me at 2:15 pm today that air Canada rebooked me on. from their i land in Toronto and from their hopefully... hopefully fly home to Edmonton to arrive by 9:30 their time (that's 2 hours behind the time i'm in alright if your curious.)
wish me luck and hugs everyone *sighs* i'mma gonna need it.
Sincerely,
Silkpaws.
p.s. man am i gonna get a story to tell when i get home :P

The 10:45 flight to YYZ this morning is being operated by a small regional jet so that may help clear the back log a bit. Regardless, I hope you got your ticket reconfirmed and that you get home soon.
and I managed to get home safely thankfully
